REX_SOH 2_01_VT diagram

Per the Jury’s request, the ensemble’s vertical transportation, life safety / evacuation, structure, constructability, and enclosure have been elaborated, and the viability of each confirmed through peer reviews.

Vertical Transportation

The Opera Hall / Concert Hall / Multifunctional Theater Building is accessed via eight 1600 kg 4 m/s double-deck elevators serving both the Opera Hall and Concert Hall and four 1800 kg 4 m/s single-deck elevators serving the Multifunctional Theater. In addition, a pair of escalators link the Gallery to the elevated lobbies of the Opera Hall and Concert Hall. The Operetta Hall Building is accessed from the Gallery via six 1800 kg 5 m/s single-deck elevators and a pair of escalators that similarly link the Gallery to its elevated lobby.

The worst average waiting times during any five minute period before performances (2.1 to 14.8 seconds, depending on venue) and the total time to clear the entire audience after performances (7 to 18 minutes, depending on venue) are all considered “excellent” by world’s standards.
